About the Course

This course is the second course in the specialization about learning how to develop video games using the C# programming language and the Unity game engine on Windows or Mac. Why use C# and Unity instead of some other language and game engine? Well, C# is a really good language for learning how to program and then programming professionally. Also, the Unity game engine is very popular with indie game developers; Unity games were downloaded 16,000,000,000 times in 2016! Finally, C# is one of the programming languages you can use in the Unity environment. This course assumes you have the prerequisite knowledge from the previous course in the specialization. You should make sure you have that knowledge, either by taking that previous course or from personal experience, before tackling this course. Throughout this course you'll continue building your foundational C# and Unity knowledge by exploring more C# and Unity topics and finishing the Unity game you started at the end of the previous course. Module 1: Learn how we make decisions in our code Module 2: Learn how to get and use player input in your Unity games Module 3: Learn how to use iteration (looping) to repeat actions in your code Module 4: Learn how we can store lots of data in arrays and lists “Unity” is a trademark or registered trademark of Unity Technologies or its affiliates in the U.S. and elsewhere. This course is an independent work and is not sponsored by, authorized by, or affiliated with Unity Technologies or its affiliates...

Good course not sure I like having to rely on other students to grade my coursework. I have been waiting a while for my work to get graded and I am afraid that it will not be graded in time.

In general, the course is a great follow-up of the previous one, but still it has some weaknesses. For example, all lectures of the week 3 are a bit belated, given that everyone who got to this point already knows (and uses) the provided information. And it would be much better to include it in the 1st course of specialization where beginners really need it. Also, I got dissapointed by the peer-review system. First, there is no more code review in this course, only builds playing. I found it was better before, when I could see others' source code. Second, once I recieved inappropriate grades from peers just because of their negligence (for example, one said that I didn't have a timer in my game but actually there was a timer). Grade doesn't matter a lot for me, but I prefer to get a correct feedback to my work.

The information offered by the course is good, however the peer review system is very annoying - it can take weeks before you manage accrue enough reviews of other participants. The main problem is the requirement that everyone much review 3 other people, which means that there are effectively 3 times more reviewers than completed assignments.

I would be hesitant to recommend these courses to other people because of this peer review system (despite the course itself being good).

Excellent course, not only are you learning to code in C# but also in Unity, which really helps to understand how object oriented programming is implemented. The Asteroids project is fun and really helps you to improve your knowledge. Dr. T is a great instructor.

I liked working on the same project during the course as opposed to doing separate exercise at the end of each week. This helps to better understand how it all comes together.

Dr T is a great teacher. The lectures explain complex stuff in a very clear way and the exercises are carefully designed to help you put the theory into practice.

This professor is a great teacher, he makes the material fun and challenging. I'm intrigued about what we might learn in the next course, so I'm considering continuing on with the specialization after I read the book he wrote on programming (which he was kind enough to make available to us for free.) You cant beat a teacher who is this highly knowledgeable in the field, and who is also capable of inculcating his students with some of the passion he has for computer science and games creation. I enjoyed this class very much.

Literally the best specialization for game development in coursera. This specific course helped me learn a lot about arrays, loops, the differnce between methods and classes, constructor, the basic of OOP and so much more. His delivery of the content is also really good as he tries to retain a balance between lectures and exercises. Truly an outstanding course!

This was more fun than the first course in the specialization because we focused on building an actual game step by step while learning lots of useful Unity features such as Text and Audio. Also, the combination of some theoretical topics like abstraction with practical ones was great.

very informational easy to understand and step by step oriented to build your knowledge slowly, and the exercises and projects let you understand the content fully, I would really recommend this course for new people wanting to learn C# and unity, the instructor explains all very well

Dr. T makes it easy to follow along. He also provides some codes himself that you can research and "decipher" yourself for better learning. The exercises are very helpful although sometimes the instructions can be a bit confusing. I'll be moving on to the 3rd section of the course.

Course is really helpful for the beginners. All the lectures and notes provided in this course are helful in the future too. Each thing is defined so clearly. I would like to thanks our instructor too for compiling this detail course for the beginners. Thank you so much sir.

A great course for learning Unity even if you have no previous programming experience. Simply great content perhaps the best that you can find over the internet. All the content is orderly arranged for best understanding of the viewer. Thanks for making this course!

My goal in taking the course was not to learn programming, but to learn how to build games with Unity. This is a great course to do both. I was expecting somewhat more on the programming side, but the Unity modules really do make you learn. Thanks Dr. T and peers!

The difficulty becomes quite higher after the last one, but in no part was I ever totally stuck. Every subject is very well explained, and the projects shown in tutorials are definitely something I want to try without any help.

Overwhelming and excellent. I am getting top marks, often not sure of myself and that is why I love it. The professor is quirky and incredibly knowledgeable. What you want in a CS professor. Incredible opportunity...

It's a very useful basic advanced course. You could finish your first small game on this course. Experience casting your own game like a craftsman forged sword in hammer one by one. It's very intersting thing!

This course is awesome. I have learn a lot C# programming and game developement with Unity. Now I think I'm ready to keep learning in the next course and start my own game.

My DrT addiction began last course, this man rocks!, this course is a must to everyone that completed the fist one. The whole specialization is simply amazing.

Excellent course, i wish that some short topics would be expanded a bit like the text input in unity, i think that -playerPrefs- can be explained alongside.

Excellent courses in this specialization. Dr. T has been a great instructor, and I really appreciate the amount of hands on coding exercises he provides.

Very interesting and challenging. It takes you by the hand on new concepts but challenges you on past knowledge. Forces you to think and be creative.

Very fun course, loved every second of taking it, Dr. T was so amazing and energetic that I really felt like I was learning something, 5/5.
